Hello,
i have a problem stabilizing a windows domain network over different subnets.
Periodically there is a domain network on the secondary subnetwork and then there isn't. (the main network works just fine).
Everytime i ping or nslookup from the subnetwork clients they get an answer just fine, but the client computers are just not in domain network but either in private or public network.
I have two "WORK" subnets, 153.30.1.0/24 & 153.30.2.0/24 (Static) which work on top of a "Guest"(DHCP) subnetwork 192.168.1.0/24
RB1 has the addresses:
153.30.1.1
192.168.1.1
RB2 has the addresses:
153.30.2.1
192.168.1.2 (DHCP-Client)
The WORK subnetworks are connected over vpn- L2TP-VPN
The subnets are also routed as such:
RB1: 0.0.0.0/0 to ISP
153.30.2.0/24 to L2TP-VPN (Host gives 153.30.1.202 ip to client)
RB2: 0.0.0.0/0 to 192.168.1.1
153.30.1.0/24 to L2TP-VPN (connecting to 192.168.1.1)
The WORK networks have the DNS set to 153.30.1.2 (ADDNS), the routers themselves are the gateways
Also both RBs have static dns entries to 153.30.1.2
Is this configuration perhaps not even viable/is flawed? or is it more probable i have some kind on a problem with my dns server?
I'm thinking it may have something to do with dns and im not really getting how a dns works.
The way i see it is that a client asks for an address from the router the router then either give an answer back if it has one or goes to the next dns/router to ask the same question.
is this perhaps too simplistic/flawed?
in my config i have set up static dns entries, are these perhaps sometimes ignored by some reason?
Im sorry for the barebones explanation, my brains have turned to mush at the moment, please do ask for more information if needed.
